Hi, maybe someone can help me about this problem:



I have a ftp server behind firewall, using pure-ftpd. When I try to access ftp server i got a strange response when client switch to passive ftp mode ...


230-This server supports FXP transfers
230 OK. Current directory is / Remote system type is UNIX. Using binary mode to transfer files. ftp> dir
500 Unknown command
227 Entring Passive Mode (xx,208,92,46,117,154 . ftp>

subseguent command get only garbage (also fragment of html pages on the server) as a reply.



(from internal network everything works fine)



Someone has a similar problem ... using telnet I see that the ftp server dosen-t even finish to transmit the closing ")" of passive mode parameters (ip is correct)



The passive port range is forced to 30000-31000 and , on the firewall side that range of port are opened



Anyone experience a similar problem?



Regards
